Huntsville Weekend Roundup January 22-24

With what looks to be a cold and cloudy weekend, we have rounded up some socially-distant indoor and virtual fun to keep boredom at bay. Check out our full Event Calendar for more activities happening in Huntsville this weekend if you don’t see anything below for you.

If you do choose to go out please remember your mask and hand sanitizer or just stay home if you’re able. Covid rates for North Alabama are really bad right now.

SAVE THE DATE!

Our Learning Expo is going virtual this year. Starting January 30 we’ll be doing Q&As with local independent schools, homeschooling organizations, summer camps, sports programs, and more! All the education info a parent could want in one easy location. Interested in participating? Email us at [email protected] with the subject line “Learning Expo 2021” and we’ll get in touch.
